The Sangharpan of the Historic Granth 'Sanmatitarka-Prakaranam'
One granth… on which a commentary of 75,000 shlokas was written! Then that treasure was lost… and found again, in pages written in pencil!
Which granth?
1,500 years ago, Acharya Siddhasen Divakar composed the 'Sanmatitarka Prakaran': the essence of all Jain nyaya in just 166 gathas! Acharya Abhaydevsuriji wrote a 25,000-shloka tika on it, and Shasan Samrat Nemisuri Dada composed the 'Nyayasudha' upon that.
The lost treasure
But for decades, no one knew where the Nyayasudha was! Then, in a corner of the gyan bhandar at Hathibhai ni Wadi in Ahmedabad, nearly 10,000 worn pages were found: written in pencil, scattered and in disarray!
The miracle
Arranging these pages, deciphering them, correcting their errors… an almost impossible task! Through years of sadhana, Pujya Shastranishtha Panditpravar Shri Trailokyamandanvijayji Maharaj Saheb made it possible. Today the granth stands ready in 6 volumes, more than 4,200 pages!
A poem
A seed of the fifth century, a shade of the eleventh, A nectar of the twentieth: all three become one.
In pages of pencil a light lay asleep; Saheb awakened it, and the whole sky shone!
Day and night for years, Saheb neither tired nor yielded; The lamp of Anekant blazed, and cries of victory rang!
Three centuries, one granth, the glory of Anekant: The praise of Trailokyamandan Saheb echoes through the world!
Invitation
A heartfelt invitation to all to take part in the historic sangharpan of this granth. Please come, and share this with everyone!
